Delsey Chatelet Air 2.0 30-Inch Check-In review

The Chatelet Air 2.0 is Delsey's heritage-styled hard shell, and the 30-inch check-in brings real security features with it. Delsey lists the patented SECURITECH 2 zip, which it says is 3x more durable than a standard zip, a TSA-accepted combination lock, reinforced corners and a holder for a Bluetooth tracker. The 100% polycarbonate case opens in a split-book layout with two evenly sized compartments, bottom tie-down straps and many pockets, and it comes with shoe and laundry bags. Cover is a 10-Year Worldwide Warranty with 100 days to change your mind. The drawbacks are weight and size: at 14.2 lb it is the heaviest hard shell here, and 30 x 20.75 x 12.75 inches adds up to about 63.5 linear inches, over the usual 62 inch limit. The list price is $449.99, but it was $314.99 in a 30% sale when we checked.
